CI-2009 WEp1: Water Use Reduction—20% Reduction
Has anyone considered reducing the water flow for water fixtures used in ablution/mosques?
Are these subject for water reduction to achieve this credit or will this be considered as process water similar treatment for process loads in energy?
Thanks in advance for the responses.

Can you explain the 12-second duration for metering faucets?
Can I use a nonpotable water source to contribute to WEp1 compliance?
We are having trouble finding EPAct-compliant fixtures. Is that a problem?
Where can I find a clear meaning of "public" and "private" as relevant to lavatory faucets?
Are shower duration controls an acceptable water-saving strategy?
Can I include process water savings in order to earn an Exemplary Performance point?

The inclusion or exclusion of ablution or prayer room sinks are at the project team’s discretion. If included, ensure that you provide a narrative and calculations to support the anticipated usage rate. Unless the fixture is a showerhead, the baseline should reflect a public lavatory faucet.

Hey Both,
In one my mosque project i have an issue while using indoor water use reduction calculator. As the devotees comes to the mosque 5 times daily so, do i have to take 5 uses per day in other category of indoor water use reduction category instead of using default use category.
